A 55-year-old male patient was admitted to the hospital due to "recurrent chest pain for 8 months, with worsening symptoms for 2 weeks". After admission, comprehensive relevant examinations led to the consideration of a giant chronic left ventricular pseudoaneurysm caused by myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries. Surgical treatment was performed at our hospital. We discuss the diagnosis and treatment of this patient.

Poly ADP-ribose polymerase-1 (PARP-1) plays a vital role in organisms, including regulating repair of DNA, maintaining genome stability, regulating cell proliferation, differentiation, and death.At present, PARP inhibitors have been made some breakthrough in the treatment of breast cancer, ovarian cancer, prostate cancer and pancreatic cancer.However, PARP inhibitors have certain limitations in other malignant tumors and patients who are resistant to PARP-1 inhibitors.This article summarizes the research on PARP inhibitors in lung cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, glioblastoma, leukemia and cervical cancer, and introduces the strategies of combining other anti-tumor drugs such as DNA repair inhibitors, immune checkpoint inhibitors, anti-angiogenic drugs and other chemotherapeutic drugs to solve their drug resistance, which provides some reference for the wide clinical application of PARP inhibitors in the future.

To explore the mechanisms by which AKR1C3 induces tumor resistance, human breast cancer cell strain MCF-7/DOX resistant to doxorubicin, MCF-7/ AKR1C3 cells for overexpression of AKR1C3 and MCF-7/DOX-KD cells for knockdown of AKR1C3 in MCF-7/DOX cells were established. Western blot analysis found that AKR1C3 was expressed at a higher level in MCF-7/DOX than MCF-7 wild type cells. Similarly, CCK-8 and DAPI confirmed that MCF-7/ AKR1C3 cells were more resistant to DOX than AKR1C3 wild types as the IC50 was increased 6 times in MCF-7/AKR1C3 cells more than in AKR1C3 wild type cells. Meanwhile, colony formation ability was also enhanced after AKR1C3 was over-expressed in MCF-7 cells.Cytoplasmic/nuclear separation analysis and IF further found that β-catenin nuclear translocation mediated by AKR1C3 was the main reason contributing to the occurrence of DOX-resistant breast cancer cells. β-catenin inhibitor, XAV939, could reverse the AKR1C3 induced doxorubicin resistance in MCF-7 cells.Results indicated that AKR1C3 could be a potential therapeutic target in breast cancer cells.

Objective:To investigate the clinical features of patients with anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis misdiagnosed as mental disorder, improve the early diagnosis rate and reduce misdiagnosis.Methods:The clinical data of patients with anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis diagnosed at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from 2012 to 2018 were collected. Patients misdiagnosed as mental disorders were screened out. Their psychiatric symptom characteristics, disease course characteristics, imaging and laboratory findings, treatment and prognosis were retrospectively analyzed.Results:A total of 121 cases of anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis were collected, and 43 cases of mental disorders were screened out. Sixteen of the 43 patients (37.2%) had prodromal symptoms, and all the patients had psychiatric behavioral abnormalities (100%), including 32 cases (74.4%) of seizures, 13 cases (30.2%) of decreased level of consciousness, 21 cases (48.8%) of involuntary movements, 15 cases (34.9%) of decreased memory, 8 cases (18.6%) of speech dysfunction, and 8 cases (18.6%) of other neurological symptoms (central hyperventilation, autonomic dysfunction). Memory loss was observed in 15 cases (34.9%), speech dysfunction in 8 cases (18.6%), other neurological symptoms (central hypoventilation, autonomic dysfunction) in 8 cases (18.6%), and various symptoms may appear simultaneously or successively in the same patient. Thirty-eight cases had complete resolution of symptoms or only minor physical impairment, and 5 cases had recurrent admissions with mental abnormalities and seizures. The recurrence rate accounted for 11.6% (5/43).Conclusions:The clinical manifestations of anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis are complex and varied. Most of them have mental behavior abnormalities as the first symptom, which is easily misdiagnosed as mental disorder and delayed treatment will lead to prolonged disease course and poor prognosis.

Objective: To study the correlation between the level of T-bet expression and liver damage in peripheral plasma cells of patients with autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) in order to provide reference for the study of pathogenesis and development of diseases. Methods: The peripheral venous blood and clinical examination data of 29 cases with AIH and 6 healthy volunteers were collected. The percentage of subpopulations of peripheral blood B cells and the proportion of T-bet⁺ cells in each subgroup were detected by flow cytometry. Plasma cells (CD19⁺CD10^-CD27^hiCD38^hi), primary B cells (CD19⁺CD10^-CD27^-IgD⁺), transitional B cells (CD19⁺CD10⁺), and memory B cells (CD19⁺CD10^-CD27⁺IgD^-) were the included subsets of B cells. Serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels, the proportion of B cells in peripheral blood subsets and IgG level, the proportion of T-bet⁺ cells in each subset and the proportion of T-bet⁺ plasma cells in each subset in B cells, the proportion of T-bet⁺ plasma cells and the level of serum ALT were analyzed for correlation analysis. Statistical analysis was performed using two independent sample t-tests and linear regression. Results: The serum IgG level of AIH patients with abnormal ALT (19.47 ± 1.039)g/L was significantly higher than that of normal ALT patients (15.5 ± 1.069)g/L, and the difference was statistically significant (t = 2.65, P < 0.05). The percentage of peripheral plasma cells in B cells of AIH patients (2.80 ± 0.14) % was higher than that of healthy volunteers (0.73 ± 0.09) %, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.01). The percentage of T-bet⁺ cells in peripheral plasma cells of AIH patients (23.54 ± 1.61) % was higher than that of healthy volunteers (6.59±0.59) % , and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.01). The correlation analysis showed that the proportion of T-bet⁺ cells in peripheral plasma cells of AIH patients was positively correlated with the proportion of plasma cells to B cells (r = 0.224 7, P < 0.01), and the percentage of peripheral plasma cells to B cells was positively correlated with the level of serum IgG (r = 0.299 1, P < 0.01). Serum IgG level was correlated with the level of ALT, reflecting an indicator of liver damage (t = 2.65, P < 0.05). Conclusion The increase of T-bet expression in the peripheral plasma cells of AIH patients is associated with liver damage, which is a new mechanism of AIH pathogenesis and disease progression.

Objective: To analyze the anatomical structure and distribution of the fused renal pyramid (FRP) in cadaveric kidney, and discuss its appearances by CT and ultrasonic examinations. Methods: From June 2018 to September 2018, 108 cadaveric kidneys were proceeded for regional anatomy. The distribution and anatomical manifestations of FRP was recorded. The renal pyramid was sliced and HE stained to explore the vascular distribution in FRP. From October 2018 to January 2019, ultrasound imaging data of 112 patients with 224 kidneys were collected, including 60 males and 52 females, age (39.0±15.1), ranging from 16 to 73 years old. The renal imaging data of 89 patients and 178 patients with enhanced renal CT were collected, including 48 males and 41 females. Age (45.4±13.6), ranging from 23 to 69 years old. The imaging findings of FRP in ultrasound and enhanced CT was summarized. Results: In cadaver kidneys, the proportion of FRP in upper and lower calyces was 68.6% (74/108) and 64.8% (70/108), respectively, higher than that in middle calyces 34.3% (37/108). In the middle group, the incidence of mild fusion was 39.0% (16/41) and severe fusion was 48.8% (20/41). The incidence of fusion of two renal pyramidal structures was 90.2% (37/41). HE staining showed that the boundary between the artery in FRP and the surrounding renal pyramidal was unclear, and the protection of connective tissue was lacking. In Ultrasound, the FRP presented as a large trapezoidal hypo-echoic area with red and blue color signals in doppler mode. In ultrasound, the incidence of FRP was 18.8% (42/224). In enhanced CT, the FRP presented as enhanced cord-like high density shade in large low density area in cortex phase. In enhanced CT, the incidence of FRP 27.5%(49/178). Conclusions The FRP is a common structure in human kidney. The arteries localize within the FRP and are absence of sufficient connective tissue protection which are different from normal arteries. Ultrasound and enhanced CT have recognition ability for FRP.

Objective To investigate the effect of sub-anesthesia dose of isoflurane in 60％ oxygen on acute lung injury in aged rats with sepsis.Methods Ninety male Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 12-14 months,weighing 500-800 g,were divided into 3 groups (n=30 each) using a random number table:sham operation group (Sham group),sepsis group (S group),and sepsis plus isoflurane plus oxygen treatment group (S+I+O group).Sepsis was induced by cecal ligation and puncture in S and S+I+O groups.In group S+I+O,0.7％ isoflurane in 60％ oxygen was inhaled for 1 h starting from 1 and 6 h after operation.Eighteen rats were selected in each group and observed for 7 days after operation,and the survival rate was recorded.Six rats were selected in each group at 24 h after operation,and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was collected to determine the protein concentrations (by BCA protein assay),blood samples were collected from the femoral artery for blood gas analysis,PaO2 was recorded,and the oxygenation index was calculated.Six rats in each group were sacrificed at 24 h after operation,the left lung specimens were obtained and stained with hematoxylin and eosin for examination of pathological changes,the right lung specimens were obtained for determination of wet to dry weight ratio (W/D ratio),and blood samples were collected from the right atrium for measurement of the concentrations of interleukin-1β (IL-1β),IL-6,tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α),high-mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1) and IL-10 in serum (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay).Results Compared with group Sham,the survival rate was significantly decreased,and the concentrations of IL-1β,IL-6,TNF-α,HMGB1 and IL-10 in serum were increased in S and S+I+O groups,and W/D ratio and protein concentrations in BALF were significantly increased,and the oxygenation index was decreased in group S (P＜0.05).Compared with group S,the survival rate was significantly increased,W/D ratio and protein concentrations in BALF were decreased,the oxygenation index was increased,the concentrations of IL-1β,IL-6,TNF-α and HMGB1 in serum were decreased,and the concentration of serum IL-10 was increased (P＜0.05),and the pathological changes were significantly attenuated in group S+I+O.Conclusion Sub-anesthesia dose of isoflurane in 60％ oxygen can reduce acute lung injury in aged rats with sepsis,and the mechanism may be ralated to inhibiting systemic inflammatory responses.

Objective: To observe the change levels of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) p65 protein in cytoplasm and nuclear, phosphorylation of inhibitor of kappa B (p-IκB) protein and cytochrome C (Cyt-c) , cleaved cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase-3 (Cleaved caspase-3) , B-cell lymphoma/leukemia-2 (Bcl-2) in cytoplasm in the process of N, N-dimethylformamide (DMF) -induced apoptosis in H9c2 cardiomyocytes, and explore the tentative mechanism of apoptosis. Methods: H9c2 cardiomyocytes were exposed to 200 mmol/L DMF. Western blotting was used to detect the protein expression levels of p65 in cytoplasm and nuclear, p-IκB after exposure for 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12 h, and the protein expression levels of Cyt-c, Cleaved caspase-3, Bcl-2 in cytoplasm after exposure for 0, 2, 4, 8, 12, 24 h. Immunofluorescencecytochemistry (IFC) was used to observe the location of Cyt-c after 200 mmol/L DMF exposure for different times. Results: The levels of p65 in cytoplasm and nuclear and p-IκB among groups were statistically significant (F were 7.79, 33.11, 90.25, respectively, all P<0.01) . Compared with the control group, the levels of p65 in cytoplasm of 2, 4, 6 h group were significantly decreased (all P<0.01) ; the levels of p65 in nuclear of 2, 4, 6, 8 h were significantly increased (all P<0.01) ; the levels of p-IκB of 2, 4, 6 h group were significantly increased (all P<0.01) . The levels of Cyt-c, Cleaved caspase-3 and Bcl-2 among groups were statistically significant (F were 51.42, 503.68, 73.37, respectively, all P<0.01) . Compared with the control group, the levels of Cyt-c of 8, 12 h group were significantly increased (both P<0.01) ; the levels of Cleaved caspase-3 of 2, 4, 8, 12, 24 h were significantly increased (all P<0.01) ; the levels of Bcl-2 of 2, 4, 8, 12, 24 h group were significantly decreased (all P<0.01) . IFC showed that Cyt-c was released from the mitochondria to the cytoplasm gradually as the extension of the exposure time. Conclusion NF-κB signaling pathway and mitochondrial pathway are involved in the mechanism of DMF-induced apoptosis in H9c2 cardiomyocytes.
